Mini Mint is great at trailing out of pots, spreading across the ground in the shade, filling in between stepping stones, and completing crossword puzzles in under an hour. It's also good at mojitos. Enjoy how cute it is and how great it smells.

Growing Info

How to Plant	Dig a hole twice the size of the root ball. Fill a little bit of the loose dirt back into the hole and tuck your plant in so the base of the stem is even with the top of the hole. Now fill in the rest of the soil around the roots, give the soft ground around the base of your new plant friend a few solid pats to compress the soil onto the roots, and a long, gentle drink of water.
Where to Plant	Find a place that gets mostly shade, with good soil (a 12" pot or window box is a good choice)
When to Plant	Plant outside in the late spring, once the soil has warmed up. Avoid the heat of the day when planting — plant in the early morning, late afternoon, or by the light of the moon
When to Expect Blooms	We're here for the foliage, though tiny purple flowers might pop up in the summer
Care Instructions	Water regularly
Extra Credit	Great in a windor box or at the front of a planter! Evergreen in warmer regions
